► FAQ

Which PENTAX endoscopes are compatible with the OF-B188 valve?

The OF-B188 is designed primarily for PENTAX Medical 90K Series and 90i Series flexible endoscopes (e.g., EG-2990i, EC-3890K). It is used across standard upper GI gastroscopes, lower GI colonoscopes, and sigmoidoscopes within these generations.

Why does the valve feel "sticky" or fail to spring back up when pressed?

A sticky valve is usually caused by:

1. Inadequate Lubrication: The O-rings are dry and creating too much friction against the endoscope's cylinder walls.

2. Debris Build-up: Dried enzymatic detergent, proteins, or chemical crystals from inadequate rinsing during reprocessing have accumulated inside the valve tracks.

3. Bent Stem: The metal stem has been dropped or bent, requiring complete replacement of the valve.
